Thank you for the video today David, on this 46th anniversary of the King's death. I hope Elvis is still singing in heaven, and still making people happy!⚡❤🙏
Thank you. Love when EP addresses haters and nasty rumor mongers....he could be brutally direct when needed. He was and is STILL the man. Rest in Love with your beloveds, EP 💯⚡❤
He seemed quite defensive. I wonder if it's not unlike Frank Sinatra in the old days where he 'editorialized' onstage, often to notorious effect when in Melbourne, Australia in '74 when Sinatra talked about hookers and broads of the press. Elvis was indeed 'strung out', he was a massive prescription drug addict. Did he 'doctor shop' or did the appalling Dr Nick deliver all he asked for? He was on Dilaudid, which is almost heroin I believe.
I just read a fascinating article that referenced Al Strada and questions he was asked at the Dr Nick enquiry. It's sad reading and the answers Al gives really made me empathise with the disease that Elvis had in the form of drug addiction. Al lives in Alaska now and has never given interviews and won't discuss what went on. Elvis developed an incredible tolerance and was still able to function yet it took such a toll on his body in a very short time. Love Elvis, such an incredible talent gone way too soon.
He is bloody gorgeous ❤ he's voice gives me the chills all the time ❤I'm glad he put those bloody idiots straight ❤ there will never be onether Elvis i love him sooo much ❤💙💔💔💔💘❤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🤴👸
Today is August 16th and i just got done watching Llnda Thompson and Jerry Schiliing hanging out talking Elvis,I wish i was there,,Great show from your show too.*TCB
Thank you for all you do for us❤💯⚡️sad Day but we remember him allways and forever ❤😢😢 lisa and Ben 🙏🙏🙏❤️💔💯god bless the presleys and the smith family 💯🙏❤️
Interesting unique and good concert. Elvis was starting to get a bit weird but couod get away with it cause he was so fascinating and still a good performer and great singer. Should of done a world tour around this time
Kind of like "Desert Storm" part 2. I didn't know he talked about the drugs beyond that concert. It must have clearly bothered him. But the rumors were finally catching up to him. Sound not taken from his mic like "Desert Storm", so not as clear, but it sounds like you found another winner. Some fans may hate these concerts because of his language and off the wall demeanor but this was Elvis. This is how he talked off stage. And his voice really had power and passion still. Light years ahead of what followed after. Good job. TCB, brother.
It definitely bothered him. I wonder why it did at this moment so much? Maybe because he felt like they were petting him against the wall and he wanted to attack? Great concert though.
Loved that David! Bridge of Troubled Water reprise was phenomenal! That was interesting about John O'Grady, as well. O'Grady was also used by Ed Hookstratten, EP's attorney, to investigate if Prissy was having an affair. It was confirmed in the Fall of 1971. Here's something else that you might be interested in from Sept. 3, '74 concert, I think. (Elvis Presley - You gave me a mountain (live-September-1974)). At one point, he's almost angrily shouting the lyrics - "she took my reason for living." I think this is the same night that Prissy was in the audience along w/ Lisa; Sheila Ryan was there, as well. EP introduces Prissy saying how beautiful she is and then introduces Sheila R. telling her to hold up her hand so everyone can see the ring.. Same time when talking about cars he mixes up the words Stutz with stud, referring to Mike S.
Elvis gave an extremely similar onstage speech to the audience on another occasion, where he mentioned the rumours as being dangerous, 'to my daughter, to my doctor'. He ended that speech by saying that if he found the person responsible for the rumours, he would 'pull their god damn tongue out by the roots.'
Aug 16 , 77.. remember that day very well !!! Let's concentrate on th great entertainer he was, put aside th negative, .. but by 74 he WAS putting on weight, & by 75 referred to " fat & forty".. Yet still sold out all concert venues. Th 2 culprits in Elvis demise, death were th greedy Col. P, & Dr Nick !!
" AIN'T it Funny How Time Slips Away " 46years ago( August 18,2023) Today they were burying Elvis at Graceland. I got to visit on his birthday twice and Anniversary of his death three times. Anniversary of his funeral four times.
Great video. I can't make up my mind if I like the jumpsuit or not. Is it black or blue? What was the ring (in the bubble picture) made of? What a huge ring wow 😮 Thanks have a nice day 💜
This was a wonderful video thanks for sharing this with us , he was such an amazing magnificent singer and performer he had a heart of gold..and cab definitely hit those beautiful high notes Question what is the name of that jumpsuit he's wearing it's beautiful I really love your channel so glad I found it and of course I subscribed your channel is definitely my favorite
Great video. Did any other stars of the period also perform the two shows a night residencies? It must have been an incredible strain to do it for a month at a time.
This rant that he went on that night and other shows during this time was so not him when he was clean. I guess you could say he was in denial or caught with his pants down so to speak. But it is what it is and he would only live a few short years after this.
James 1:17 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning." 46 years ago today, I'll never forget it. ..I was 13 years old. I was playing ball with my brother and my grandma walked out of the house weeping...her words: "ELVIS IS DEAD!" At 42 years old, he was gone. I make no apology for being a huge Elvis fan, then and now. I've sang his songs, watched his concerts, read about his life, as truly he was the greatest entertainer to ever live. However, as big of a fan as I am, I also get saddened when I think of his life. He was thrust into stardom so fast, that few could have handled it, and sadly, neither could he. Elvis was known as the "King of Rock and Roll". My friends, Elvis had PHENOMENAL VOCAL ABILTY, incredible charisma, and I'm convinced that he was called of God, to sing EXCLUSIVELY for the Glory of God! But, he chose world fame and fortune, and sadly many of us, with those sane giftings, would have done the exact same. Any gift the Lord gives you, will ultimately CONSUME YOU, if you don't use that gift for the purpose that God gave you that gift for. From all that I've studied, read and researched, several weeks before Elvis passed, Reverend Rex Humbard said he personally prayed the sinners prayer with Elvis, (who was raised like me in the Assembly of God) and Elvis gave his heart to the Lord! Friends, whatever God has gifted you with, please use that gift for the glory of God and the souls of men!!
..."he was called to sing exclusively for the glory of God, but he chose world fame and fortune instead"... Good grief, sanctimonious much??? Elvis used his "gift" wrongly now? Why is it that when it comes to Elvis, so many stands in high judgement of him, thinking they know what he should and shouldn't have done with his life, or think they figured out what his psychological problems were, and where he went wrong. Now, somebody think they know what their almighty God had intended for him ? Also, Elvis handled his fame just fine, considering where he came from, I think he fell into that stardom like a pro. The fact that he died young and struggled with lots of problems at the end does not mean he failed, or didn't accomplished his destiny. A lot of people don't get to live a full life, or meet a bad end, that's just the way it is. The legacy Elvis left behind and the joy it still brings cannot be wrong. And it happened the way it happened. Maybe there was never any other way....
I love those 3 different Spanish Flower suits but they were a bit heavy. But about the 'renewed' setlist: I think that was a good thing to do and honestly I think he should 'change' the opening now and then... that would maybe 'break' the Routine.. I like that opening and honestly those people who just was in his show only just 'to be there' - he should not care about that reactions, honestly. And he could do the Intro in every way he wants to do, I would like to see a regular change...
What else would it mean ? There were suspicions, , rumors, of his addiction, to something, at that time, th public, not aware, not till th book by bodyguards, Red, Sonny,West, Dave Hebbler, released Aug 1, shocked th world , .. how long E. been addicted,. were not illicit, street drugs( tho E. admitted to dabbling in some coke, didn't like it. They were over prescribed, pills, amphetamines, sedatives, pain killers, opioids, for many health problems, by Dr Nick. And was th Col. worked him to death !!
@@Memow-pk1ng I just know he was anti-drugs and may have reacted to being accused of being “strung out” as saying he was abusing illegal drugs…alternatives are he was lying when he denied it, or was flat out in denial. Being a teen from the 70s, to me “strung out” was part of the hippy world of drug use, and not prescription drug addiction, totally different scenarios. It was viewed differently, so I wondered what Elvisistheman’s opinion on that would be. I only have love for Elvis and compassion for his struggles.
I mean, Elvis was strung out by some heavy duty pain meds. I don’t think Elvis was THAT fooled just because they were prescription. He abused them and he knew it. I think he was just trying to straighten out the rumors tho in his favor.
@@ElvisistheMan_ Thanks for the answer. It's interesting he would be so emphatic if in his heart he knew he was specifically "strung out". I do wonder if it specific wording that gave him the edge of it not describing him. I don't like to think he would just flat out be dishonest about it. It seems to me that he didn't see his use as a drug culture abuse (recreational), which "being strung out" would have meant at that time, at least where I lived in the 70s. I prefer my theory, but respect yours!
At 8:27 Elvis is passing a scarf to a lady from a walkway that led into the audience? I didn't know one even existed, till NOW! When was this walkway installed? It takes Elvis right down into the audience. The LV Hilton shows had gotten even MORE intimate with this walkway! Man, your almost face to face with Elvis as it is. That Hilton musta been thee spot to witness all of that Presley magic for sure.
oui je connai cette salade il a raconté qu' un salopart de journaleux avait dit qu' il était camer alors qu' il était malade hé ça commençait vraiment à deconner pour Elvis je l aimé et l admire mais il était pas un saint juste un artiste formidable et avant tout un humain.
Were you ever in the audience? They looked fantastic on the stage. It took courage to wear them. They were part of the mystique he wanted to create. He always wanted to put on a show.
@@deborahstevens9763 Yes, I was...2x. Both times were the earlier, simpler jumpsuits, not the overly blinged, gawdy jumpsuits that he wore in the later 70's.
We love Elvis! The man in our eyes can do no wrong! 46 years ago today! The world lost a Magnificent Person! RIP: EP TCB Baby! ⚡
When Elvis loses his place in a song, he always comes back with something mindblowing!!❤️🇦🇺
46yrs ago we all lost him so young Elvis Presley is a legend He never be forgotten and beyond 2023💖💖💖🇵🇪🇵🇪
Thank you for the video today David, on this 46th anniversary of the King's death. I hope Elvis is still singing in heaven, and still making people happy!⚡❤🙏
Love to hear Elvis speaking. It's so beautiful. Love you always Elvis.
Elvis would just be too real for today's society. Imagine, he'd be getting cancelled left, right and centre! 😄💖👑
This is Fantastic!!!! I Celebrate Your Soul, Elvis. I Will Always Love You 💖💖💖
David thaks david for honoring elvis today it is a day i will never forget RIp elvis its gard to beleive its been 46 years amazing

After all these decades, incredible how Elvis Presley still and frequently surprises and touches us.... me!❤🎶👍
I just read a fascinating article that referenced Al Strada and questions he was asked at the Dr Nick enquiry. It's sad reading and the answers Al gives really made me empathise with the disease that Elvis had in the form of drug addiction. Al lives in Alaska now and has never given interviews and won't discuss what went on. Elvis developed an incredible tolerance and was still able to function yet it took such a toll on his body in a very short time. Love Elvis, such an incredible talent gone way too soon.
What's your opinion of Dr Nick?
He is bloody gorgeous ❤ he's voice gives me the chills all the time ❤I'm glad he put those bloody idiots straight ❤ there will never be onether Elvis i love him sooo much ❤💙💔💔💔💘❤💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🤴👸
He was and is loved
What an amazing performer. Elvis will always be #1
I just love him ❤ Elvis is the man the King ❤ and in our Eyes Elvis can't do no wrong ❤ he is absolutely fabulous and I love him forever ❤💙💔 ❤❤❤🤴👸💋💋💋💋
Elvis has some serious martial arts skills. His hand combinations are very fast and fluid.

Dave,
thanks as always for honoring the legacy of the King.
Have you heard the new song, "If I could talk to Elvis"? A great tribute.
Yeah, I put a clip of it on my Instagram!
Elvis gave an extremely similar onstage speech to the audience on another occasion, where he mentioned the rumours as being dangerous, 'to my daughter, to my doctor'. He ended that speech by saying that if he found the person responsible for the rumours, he would 'pull their god damn tongue out by the roots.'
Yep, he said a few different times
Such great moves - so talented.

@@ElvisistheMan_ No Thank You are helping to keep the GOAT alive through all your Great videos!! Keep up the great work!!
The denials are an indication of how far in he actually was. Unfortunately it took hold and never let go and ultimately took his life.
I agree
Very nice video! Thank you very much David!

In the kings eyes he wasn't a druger and wasn't breaking any laws. Prescribed pills.

@@ElvisistheMan_ I wonder what individuals made the decision to have it removed and WHY?
The Colonel? Hilton mngt? Elvis? Security???
I love Elvis but he didn't live in reality so sad to come to such an ending.
